I don't understand a single thing that you're thinking.
But stay here a little longer.
Because maybe...
I'll be able to believe you.
Good.
He's working hard.
I'll work just as hard.

Episode 10 Desperate Situation
She said she might be able to believe me?
Just now, Flamie said that...
I always wondered
why you protected me.
Why you didn't suspect me.
Why are you pointing that gun at me?!
If you try to lie to me, I'll shoot.
W-Wait...
I thought you weren't our enemy.
I thought I wanted to protect you.
I don't have a reason I can tell you.
Flamie!
You didn't hear me? Don't try to lie to me.
It's because...
You're like me.
You know the pain of being betrayed by those you believed in and losing your home...
Why was I able to believe in you?
Because I...
Yeah...
Then I'll just say it!
A long time ago,
I tried to be a tool of war.
I tried to abandon my human heart.
I tried to be something that would do nothing but kill the fiends that took everything.
Like you and my master said, I'm an average man.
I thought that would be the only way I could become the world's strongest man.
But you know...
It didn't work.
Your heart isn't something you can get rid of.
Not true, Adlet.
I was able to do so.
I survived because I was able to get rid of my heart,
in order to take revenge on my mother and the Demon God.
That isn't true, Flamie.
If you're trying to get rid of your heart, your heart is making you do it.
You can never abandon everything to get stronger.
The one thing you can never stop is falling in love with someone!
For a long time...
Well, since yesterday, I guess...
I've loved you.
I only just now realized it...
But since I first met you, my feelings haven't changed.
Flamie, I love you.
When I met up with Nachetanya, I learned you were the Brave-Killer.
But when I saw them suspect you,
I thought that was wrong.
If even your comrades wouldn't believe you,
I thought that I had to believe you.
If no one in the world would protect you,
I thought that I had to protect you.
When I realized that one of us was a fake, it was the same.
More than finding the seventh, I thought I had to protect you.
I never thought of suspecting you.
What about me do you love?
No idea...
But when I see you in pain, I also feel pain.
Even the strongest man in the world can't handle that pain.
Where should I live,
once the Demon God is dead?
I can't return to the fiends.
And I've nowhere to live in the human world.
My ideal outcome is dying to kill the Demon God.
Right now, revenge may mean everything to you.
But once your revenge is over, you have to start your next life.
I won't have one.
The humans will never accept me.
I'm the daughter of a fiend, and I'm the Brave-Killer.
They can't.
I'll take care of it somehow!
Don't be stupid.
There's no way...
You're the one who's being stupid!
Who do you think I am?
I'm the strongest man in the world, Adlet!
You think I can't even create a home for you?
No way!
Adlet...
I've told you everything about how I feel.
Flamie, please believe me.
Flamie lives in darkness.
She loves no one, and believes no one.
With your trust, friendship, and protecting your comrades,
you're an entirely different species than she is.
I understand
you now.
Flamie...
Flamie!
Now I'm certain that you're my enemy.
Gunfire?
Let us hurry, Princess!
Right!
That's Flamie!
Adlet...
It didn't work, after all?
Listen, Chamot...
Watch him.
What are you doing?
Do you know how dangerous she is?!
Sure, leave it to me.
Just watch him.
Only attack if he tries something.
Behave, and I won't get any more angry.
So you are angry.
Next time you do something like that, you'll get much worse than a spanking.
Okay.
All right...
Chamot's watching you, Kitty-san, so don't move.
Then Maura's so strong, she scares you?
Chamot's a lot stronger, but...
Maura-obachan is scary.
God of the Mountains,
grant me your power!
Princess! Goldov!
Flamie!
What is this?
The power of mountain echoes!
Maura-obachan is the Saint of Mountains!
She can do a lot of things!
Hans was defeated.
He survived, but his condition is critical.
Adlet was the one who did it.
He was the seventh, after all.
Kill him immediately.
Without hesitation.
What are you thinking?
This will finally spur the princess to action.
And Flamie will not let him escape.
You can't—
Hey! You just tried to do something, right?
I need to put you at death's door, right?
Don't be stupid.
I told you to merely keep him there.
Boo!
No way!
Are you the seventh?!
Maura?
So it seems.
What the hell is she doing?
Hans is fine!
Maura set a trap!
She said he was still alive.
And I won't believe you anymore.
Princess...
I'm sorry, Hans-san.
You didn't do anything wrong, did you?
Princess...
What was I doing out here?
Come.
Let us go.
Princess? What's wrong?
Princess, please calm down!
Something really was wrong with me today...
So much happened,
I didn't know what was what, did I?
But I've calmed down.
I'm finally calm, Goldov.
That is good, then.
This is it, isn't it?
For the first time,
I realize how it feels to be really angry.
I finally understand!
Princess...
Adlet-san, I believed in you...
I believed in you!
Isn't it wonderful, Goldov?
Since I started my journey, I've had so many new experiences!
And I'm going to have
many, many more, won't I?
I want to know...
If you lose yourself to rage and slice apart an enemy,
then how do you feel?
Flamie!
Nice work, Flamie!
That's Flamie.
She's telling us her location.
Yes. Adlet-san is there, isn't he?
Flamie! Return to the temple!
If you do, you'll see Maura is lying!
So what?
That won't change the fact that you're the fake.
Why do you think so?
I—
I'm faster than she is...
For now, I'll have to run.
Crap!
No mercy, huh?
Flamie!
Why did you think I was the fake?
Why don't you run?
I want you to believe me.
Don't open your filthy mouth.
Answer the question you were asked, Flamie!
Because I can see
the ugly truth behind your words,
your plans to deceive me
with honeyed words.
I was telling the truth!
You aren't seeing anything!
Liars always say the same things.
"I'll believe in you. I'll protect you.
I care about you."
I'll never believe that again...
No one will ever protect me. I won't even think about it.
I'll fight alone, live alone,
and die alone.
Flamie...
I know...
I've felt it on my skin and in my body...
That it's better not to believe in anyone
than believe and be betrayed!
Flamie!
It isn't that Flamie doesn't believe people.
It's that she's decided she won't.
She...
She really wants to believe in someone.
Flamie...
You weren't able to finish him?
Maura?
Maura.
Help me... I will kill him!
Understood.
Is this it?
I can't help your feelings anymore...
A smokescreen!
He got away.
Adlet?
He's over there?
Why?
Flamie!
He already surrendered...
I see.
But don't think you'll survive this.
We're out one, as well.
Is Hans okay?
You are the one that hurt him.
If he's fine, that's all that matters.
You will tell us
about your plan and those behind you.
Unfortunately, I can't.
Then...
I'm going to
prove Flamie's innocence!
What?
Will you listen?
Even if you say no, I'll tell you.
What do you mean?
For this to have worked, one thing must be true.
One of the seven,
who bear the Crest of the Braves, activated the barrier.
There's no time, so I'll skip the evidence.
You're the fake! That's enough!
I'm not taking out a weapon, okay?
This is a drug my master made.
Your master... Could it be?
Flamie, lend me a bullet.
This drug is used to find traces of fiends.
When it reacts to the special liquid fiends emit,
it turns red.
You just saw it, right?
Flamie's a half-blood fiend, and it activated for her.
And I sprayed this
on the altar that activates the barrier.
It didn't react.
Hans saw it, too.
Flamie didn't touch the altar.
That is the proof she's innocent.
The proof that she didn't activate the barrier!
Adlet...
You bastard...
If you're the fake, I guess your plan is screwed-up.
I just ruined your plan.
Your plan to blame Flamie after me and kill her!
If I'm killed, the seventh will be after you next.
I've always loved you.
Flamie, I love you.
Adlet,
you're a hell of a guy.
For a moment,
even I thought you might be genuine.
If I'm not the fake, you're going to regret it.
That's why you scare me!
If I don't kill you now, everyone else will believe you!
Flamie, after I die, go to Hans for help.
You can trust him.
You fool!
Adlet, I hated you.
I hated the fact that I was starting to believe in you...
Stop, Flamie! Don't let him trick you!
I still hate you.
The more I talk to you, the more I hate you.
I believe you...
Even though I decided to never believe anyone again...
Flamie...
Run, Adlet!
You, too!
God of the Mountains!
I'll hold off Maura.
No, you run, also.
Where?
I'm thinking about it!
You're late, Princess!
It can't be...
Nachetanya.
Adlet...
She's an enemy.
It was fun, Adlet-san.
I'm going to kill you now, okay?
